Building Service & Industrial Company's Strategic Table of Technological Capabilities
Accordingly, we revised the EBARA Group Strategic Table of Technological Capabilities to show the core technologies that constitute the competitive edge of each of the five in-house companies, the shared technologies between the companies, and the common basic technologies.
We will utilize these technologies to contribute to society with passion and dedication.
